So, how do we do it? It’s a perfect formula of diligence and trusted medical resources, supported by our team of experts and Peanut Pros. If you want to know whether a Peanut article has been fact-checked, just look at the top to see the author and the expert reviewer.

Medical guidelines

We mark any content on the Peanut blog that mentions scientific or medical references as ‘Medical’ content. It’s then passed to a vetted medical reviewer in that field to thoroughly read and edit.

Medical guidelines

Our sources

Our in-house writing team also refers to the National Library of Medicine, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and other renowned medical organizations for studies to research and support their articles before they’re passed over to the expert for review.
